The Golden State Warriors have been handed a massive boost in their hopes of retaining the NBA title with the imminent return of All-Star Andrew Wiggins, according to NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski.
The 28-year-old has missed 22 straight games attending to a family matter and will rejoin the defending champions who find themselves battling to maintain a playoff spot with only three games remaining in the regular season. However, it is unclear whether Wiggins will suit up before the post-season.
ESPN’s Wojnarowski quoted sources as saying Wiggins is ‘nearing a return to the team’ and is expected to be back in the Bay area ‘as soon as the next 24 hours.’
